Users appreciate its radar detection capabilities, accuracy, ease of use, and the inclusion of GPS for camera updates. While some mention false alarms and suggest turning off K band, the detector's size is considered reasonable.

    Not only is this radar easy to read, but it has GREAT range. It will detect the police further away than other radars I've owned. You won't be disappointed.

    This thing seems to work almost a little to well it’s pretty much going off anytime I drive by stores with automatic doors and cars or vans with those sensors in the mirrors or Deleware.. went through Wilmington and few other towns around there and it went off just about constantly , I’m thinking they maybe doing it on purpose over there ,so you turn thing off? On the bright side I went halfway around the country with it and it. Has served me well though annoyingly.. The mute button is nice but I find I end up hitting mute more than I should have to

    I've had this for a month and love it! Best fuzz buster I've invested in yet! It detects freaky far away and has already saved me 2 tickets at least.

    Really good range, saved me a few times, driving in NYC is horrible though with the speed and red light warnings because they are on every single block, so if you live in an area with a lot of speed cameras you may need to disable that setting because it get really annoying

    I bought this item to replace my older one that was big, bulky & 1/2 the time did not pick up radars. This works like a charm & I really like the different sounds for k band & laser.

    I’m super impressed with the range and the “false” signal feature. I truly believe this is the best detector for the money. Can’t beat a Uniden

    I’ve owned several radar detectors, and none of the others even came close to what this one will do. It will detect law enforcement far,far away. I really like this one, the Unidentifiable R3.

    Replaced an Escort 8500. What an upgrade in detection and features. So many setting to choose from. Watched several video online prior to deciding on the R3. You will not be disappointed.

    Happy with my purchase. It detects radar from afar and is capable of filtering false positives. Much better than the Escort I used to own.

    Don’t get me wrong, it works and it works really good with police radars. Just the only thing that makes it 4stars and not five, a lot of false alerts. Still will recommend since it does the job with police radars.

    The Uniden R3 has excellent range and does a very good job of filtering out other car's BSD. The ability to mute based on freq and location is great and prevents a lot of those annoying false alerts.

    Uniden pulled the stops when creating the R3! It picks up most KA bands 1-2 miles out unless the squad has their radar off. It also picks up red light and speed cameras to let you know when to exercise caution. A ton of custom features from band sensitivity to differential tones for each band. I love this device and the bang for my buck I got by price matching.
